Wendy's doesn't really do anything for me. I'll eat it, but I don't get excited about it.

Quote:
I've always compared Faulkner to Hemingway
I haven't read enough of either to form any kind of expert opinion, but if Hemingway's writing is generally consistent with "Farewell to Arms" and Faulkner's is with "The Sound and the Fury," I couldn't disagree more. That's pretty limited exposure I know, but I don't see the similarities at all at this point. I'm reading, "Tender is the Night" right now but as soon as I'm done, I'm starting Hemingway's, "A Moveable Feast," so I'll should be able to provide a better comparison when I'm done.

I'd like to see a brief "Arch Deluxe" comeback too. I think it was marketed as the "adult sandwich" which may be why I liked it as a kid though. I can't even remember what was on it.

Edit: Nothing special is on it other than circular bacon. It's pretty much failed in almost every single market it's been in worldwide, except France. What does that tell you?

Edit #2: I'm really glad that arguing the intricacies of one the U.S.'s most celebrated author's classic works, right alongside McRib discussion has caught on. This is totally what I was going for.

Creeping around as I please nonchalantly like any other Supreme Emperor might.
